Davina Romansky Jewelry

Jewelry made with mixed metals

sometimes cause mixed reactions -

both metallurgically and emotionally.

Davina Romansky creates jewelry

by mixing metals, precious gems,

and other items of interest.

Starting with natural shapes, many organic in style,

the combination of metals creates energy

within each piece.

Simple pieces become more layered

and dense. They seem to create more energy.

We always have a positive reaction

when we see it. 

Here is a piece called Silver and Gold Bangle

that includes black diamonds.

This ring is called Cactus Pearl - it's made with

copper, silver, and a pearl.

Our favorite piece is her

Caged Feathers Necklace.

Made with fine and sterling silver wire,

it features an abundance of Peacock Feathers.

We are captivated by her asymmetrical designs

that meander and build upon themselves.

They inspire our own strong, positive reactions

 and we enjoy that aspect of wearing

handcrafted jewelry.

Are you inspired by this work?

We'd love to know.

Gail Crosman Moore Jewelry

Jewelry from Gail Crosman Moore always

delights us. Her handmade jewelry created

from felt and glass beads are often

botanically-inspired

and downright gorgeous.

Combining her handmade glass beads with

painstaking felt and fiber work

result in pieces that are colorful,

texture-filled, and delightful.

Sometimes the glass work takes

center stage while at other times the

fiber work becomes the highlight

of the piece.

 

Each is more beautiful and
multi-dimensional than the last.

Gail's creative talents
are rich and varied.

We look forward to seeing
more of her inspiring work.

we'd love to hear from you.

Deb Karash Jewelry

We get a kick out of being surprised.

So, we were pleasantly surprised when we

discovered that jewelry made by

Deb Karash features the

    fusing of colored pencil on metal.

Drawing with colored pencils on a copper base,

using several shades to create each vibrant design,

then combining that piece with sterling silver

 results in delightful jewelry

with depth and texture.

Each new layer of nuanced color adds depth

and each layer of metal provides richly

textured dimension.

 
 

Fusing creative design with excellent

metalsmithing skills is just the beginning

of this multi-layered process.

Fusing multiple layers of pencil and patina

creates surprising and wonderful

jewelry that inspires us.

 

Does all of this inspire you?

Let us know what you think!
